Parks & Nature
If you have some time go up to Mount Lemmon. They say the gradient in ecoculture going from the valley to the top of the mountain is the same as going from Mexico to Canada. Beautiful beautiful beautiful location, and if it's summer it's a great escape from the heat. It's usually about 30 degrees cooler on the mountain, so you may need a jacket!

Plenty of hiking trails here. If it's the summer I wouldn't recommend this one because it does get warm, but other times in the year this is absolutely gorgeous.
